mjhibbett: Perfect.
mjhibbett: Just a bloom in the evening sun, which I was only there to see thanks to the Gatwick drones. (Hibbett was snoozing... again!)
mjhibbett: This is why there's a seawater swimming pool complex! (In the distance.) Taking a dip here is not for the faint-hearted! (Paddling's great, though.)
mjhibbett: Cute!
mjhibbett: Waiting for Mark to wake up... not complaining!
mjhibbett: Sound asleep. A classic case of art fatigue. Or was it the beer?!
mjhibbett: Upside-down trees. ART!
mjhibbett: Lago Martiánez: part (very, very cold!) seawater swimming pool complex, part outdoor art gallery, 100% ACE! (Teide in background.)
mjhibbett: Happy Hibbett.
mjhibbett: I love golden sand as much as the next person, but I love the Tenerife black sand, too. Reminds you you're standing on a hulking great volcano!
mjhibbett: Mark doesn't want to show up the surfers so stays on the beach. Thoughtful as ever.
mjhibbett: And more waves...
mjhibbett: Waves...
mjhibbett: The prettiest Starbucks I've ever seen. Beat this!
mjhibbett: The cute little church in PdlC.
mjhibbett: There is lots of public art in Puerto de la Cruz. (And murals.)
mjhibbett: ...and wiggly paving.
mjhibbett: We didn't take many pics as we spent most of the week on our sun loungers! But, thumbs aloft for pedestrian walkways fringed with palm trees...
mjhibbett: We spent the week before Christmas in Puerto de la Cruz. Turns out we needn't have worried about missing out on Christmassyness, as there were poinsettias, nativity scenes and Rudolphs everywhere! Feliz Navidad! This is La Laguna, the old capital.

mjhibbett: MJH photo: The birds on Lindisfarne are soooo cute and friendly!
mjhibbett: Edinburgh: boo-hoo - not Buffs Club any more!
mjhibbett: Taxi back along the causeway. Turns out you can walk it: we MUST go back!
mjhibbett: Hairy sand-dunes
mjhibbett: Freee as a bird...
mjhibbett: It's a thing. Can see it for miles. Up close it looks just the same, but bigger.
mjhibbett: ...this. Cairn central!
mjhibbett: I think they mean...
mjhibbett: You-know-who. Happy to be on Lindisfarne because IT IS ACE.
mjhibbett: Lindisfarne: 50 shades of grey (in a good way)
